Pet Friends with Gemma - Cats

I am an absolute cat lover, and they have always been apart of my life.

Since starting my business Offaly Pet Sitting back in 2016, I have loved getting to know so many wonderful pets and I am now excited to focus on cat sitting as my speciality.

‼️ REMINDER - FULLY BOOKED‼️

We are fully booked for July & August, and currently unable to take on new clients at this time.

Please note we are a small business with limited time on our hands having our own children off school, and fitting in last minute bookings is very difficult during the summer period.

🙏 So we please remind all our current clients that we unfortunately are unable to take anymore bookings until September onwards as we are very fortunate to have had so many bookings this year and we are being stretched to the maximum.

Thank you so much for your continued support ❤️

Easy access to key resources helps prevent conflict in multi-cat households 🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛. This includes food and water bowls, litter trays, scratching surfaces, resting areas, and playtime/toys:

😺Food - Cats are lone feeders, so it’s best to prepare food and feed cats out of sight of each other to prevent competition over food. Try offering food separately and in their usual place if your cats are fed together or ad-lib.

😺Water - Offer several water stations on each level of your home. One water station per cat, plus a spare is advised. Keep water bowls filled to the top and place them away from corners so your cats can access them from 360° and feel safe when they drink.

😺Litter trays - A minimum of one tray per cat plus a spare is advised. Spread trays out in quiet locations throughout your home. Some cats will ambush each other when hooded trays are used, so try offering open trays too. Scoop each tray out twice daily, and empty them every 1-2 weeks. Cats prefer to urinate and defecate in different areas and don’t like using soiled trays, so good litter tray hygiene is essential in multi-cat households.

😺Resting areas - Elevated resting/perching areas are good as these allow cats to observe their surroundings and sleep from a place of safety. Enclosed beds can provide an additional sense of security, just remember to offer beds with more than one entry/exit point in multi-cat households (to enable easy escape).

😺 Scratching surfaces - All cats need to scratch! Offer one scratching surface plus a spare in different areas of the home. Place scratching surfaces near where your cats sleep (so they can stretch and scratch after resting) and on the edge of their territory i.e. near doors/stairs to encourage use. Each cat will have their scratching preference, so you may need to try different surfaces/designs to establish what they like.

😺Playtime - Playing mimics hunting behaviours, so it’s best to play with each cat individually as cats are solitary hunters. Wand toys are great for interactive play. Scheduling regular playtimes can help reduce anxiety or boredom, which is good for all cats, but especially important for indoor-only cats or those living in multi-cat households.

*Avoid getting another cat if there is already conflict between the cats in your home. Contact your vet if you are worried about your cat's behaviour. Referal to a clinical animal behaviourist who specialises in cats may be beneficial. ❤️🐈‍⬛

💔 Molly 💔

We were heartbroken to hear the passing of Molly last week, she was such a lovely cat and we had really built a lovely relationship being her pet sitter for the last 6 years, we are going to truly miss her, but she was a little fighter and despite not being well on and off for the last couple years she reached the amazing age of 20/21 years old.

We will miss you Molly 😔 😢

Time for some Bird TV watching 📺 😎 😀

🧡 Tadhg 🧡 I just absolutely love playing with Tadhg, he's always so much fun, a real hunter, so engaging those hunting instincts really helps him to relax afterwards and minimises the urge of him wanting to go outside on a real hunting trip 😀 #CaringForYourCat #lovecats #catcuddles #catcare #loveyourcat #catsittingservice #HappyAtHome #kittycat #catsitter #cat

💚 Max & Minnie 💚 Loads of visits with Max & Minnie recently and had such a special time with Max wanting to play 🥰 Since looking after these two for 7 years now, there have only been a handful of moments Max decides he wants to play, so such a heartwarming special moment for me with this happens 💗 #lovecats #catcuddles #loveyourcat #catsittingservice #happyathome #kittycat #catsitter #cat #purrfection #catlife #catcare #CaringForYourCat

💙 Rui & Elrond 💙 A bitter-sweet goodbye to Rui & Elrond the other week. After hearing the devastating news their companion Firulais passed away suddenly due to cancer, the family have also decided to return to Spain after living here in Tullamore for the last couple of years. We have been so lucky to spend such precious time with these wonderful cats and we are ever so grateful they chose us as their cat sitters. We will all miss them so much, but wish them all the best for their new home in Spain 🥰 #catsitter #catcuddles #lovecats #loveyourcat #catsittingservice #happyathome #kittycat #purrfection #catlife #cat

🩷 Molly 🩷 Molly cuddle time 🥰 😻

🧡 Mango & Luka 🧡 Loved my visits with these boys recently, they were full of play and mischief and loved all the attention they were getting. 🥰 #cat #catsittingservice #catsitter #catcuddles #catlife #lovecats #loveyourcat #happyathome #kittycat #purrfection

An excellent example of how clumping litter can keep your litter tray cleaner for longer. ✅️ Easier to clean ✅️ Quicker to spot clean ✅️ Cleaner and fresher for longer ✅️ Able to have 2-3inch litter deep that cats prefer ✅️ Reduces amount of litter needed to top up ✅️ Cleans out dirty only, minimising any clean litter being taken away ✅️ Cheaper in the long run ✅️ Happier cat with a cleaner litter tray 😻

We see you Sookie 👀 😏

🧡 Tadhg 🧡 Lovely to see this young boy again, his visits were full of playtime, lots of affection, and enrichment to keep him busy 😍 #catlife #lovecats #catcuddles #catsittingservice #LoveYourCat #happyathome #catsitter #kittycat #purrfection

MEET MANGO & LUKA These two were a bit nervous at first, but with the power of calming pheromones, experienced pet sitters and some patience, they soon came around and were so very relaxed, loving playtime and lots of attention 🥰 #lovecats #catcuddles #LoveYourCat #happyathome #catsittingservice #CatEnrichment #kittycat #catsitter #purrpurrpurr #purrfection
